Graham, others have answered that it will help. IT will, but what
really helps is a slightly hotter cam. I had the S2 grind in mine, with
a head at 9.6. Worked very well. Great flat torque from 3000-5500.
It just so happens that I am a nut and want more, so that cam, its
tappets and pushrods are all for sale! They are less than two years
old, and probably have less than 2000 miles on them. Will eventually
offer them on ebay, but thought I'd let the list know first. Also have
same age rocker shaft and rockers.

Subject: Quick Cylinder Head Advice
Hey all,
Just a quick note, I am going to be shaving my 7.75CR Cylinder head down
to around 9:1.
I was all set with this Idea, until I wondered if it would really make a
difference, as my car
has Stromberg Carbs. Though I am not really looking for HP gain, I just
want to feel a little
more power then I did before.
Thanks all,
- Graham
